A series of new symmetrical s-tetrazine derivatives, coupled via a 1,4-phenylene linkage with a 4H-1,2,4-triazole ring, were obtained. The combination of these two rings in an extensively coupled system has significant potential applications, mainly in op

Functionalized nanocellulose was prepared and employed for immobilization of phenanthroline-copper(I) complex to afford cellulose nanofibril grafted heterogeneous copper catalyst [CNF-phen-Cu(I)]. This nanocatalyst was well characterized using FT-IR, NMR, XRD, CHNS, AAS, TGA, EDX and SEM. The activities of the synthesized catalyst were examined in the synthesis of diaryl ethers via C-O cross-coupling of phenols and aryl iodides, as well as, the preparation of N-aryl amides and N-aryl heterocycles through C-N cross-coupling of amides and N-H heterocycle compounds with aryl halides. In this trend, various substrates containing electron-donating and electron-withdrawing groups were exploited to evaluate the generality of this catalytic protocol. Accordingly, the catalyst demonstrated remarkable catalytic efficiency for both C-N and C-O cross-coupling reactions, thereby resulting in good to excellent yields of the desired products. Furthermore, the recoverability experiments of the catalyst showed that it can be readily retrieved by simple filtration and successfully reused several times with negligible loss of its catalytic activity.

Phosphine-mediated deoxygenative nucleophilic substitutions, such as the Mitsunobu reaction, are of great importance in organic synthesis. However, the conventional protocols require stoichiometric oxidants to trigger the formation of the oxyphosphonium i

A new green approach for the synthesis of amide through TBAI-catalyzed oxidative coupling of benzyl bromides with amine was developed in the presence of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as an oxidant. Various electron-donating and withdrawing groups containing benzyl bromides and various amines, were subjected to the reaction and transformed to the corresponding amide in good to excellent yields.

Three ring-expanded N-heterocyclic carbene-supported copper(i) triphenylstannyls have been synthesised by the reaction of (RE-NHC)CuOtBu with triphenylstannane (RE-NHC = 6-Mes, 6-Dipp, 7-Dipp). The compounds were characterised by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Reaction of (6-Mes)CuSnPh3 with di-p-tolyl carbodiimide, phenyl isocyanate and phenylisothiocyanate gives access to a copper(i) benzamidinate, benzamide and benzothiamide respectively via phenyl transfer from the triphenylstannyl anion with concomitant formation of (Ph2Sn)n. Attempts to exploit this reactivity under a catalytic regime were hindered by rapid copper(i)-catalysed dismutation of Ph3SnH to Ph4Sn, various perphenylated tin oligomers, H2 and a metallic material thought to be Sn(0). Mechanistic insight was provided by reaction monitoring via NMR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.

The gas-phase extrusion-insertion (ExIn) reactions of a silver complex [(BPS)Ag(O2CC6H5)]2- ([BPS]2- = 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline-disulfonate), generated via electrospray ionisation was investigated by Multistage Mass Spectrometry (MS n ) experiments in a linear ion trap combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Extrusion of carbon dioxide under collision-induced dissociation (CID) generates the organosilver intermediate [(BPS)Ag(C6H5)]2-, which subsequently reacts with phenyl isocyanate via insertion to yield [(BPS)Ag(NPhC(O)C6H5)]2-. Further CID of the product ion resulted in the formation of [(BPS)Ag(C6H5)]2-, [(BPS)Ag]- and C6H5C(O)NPh-. The formation of a coordinated amidate anion is supported by DFT calculations. Heating a mixture of benzoic acid, phenyl isocyanate, silver carbonate (5 mol%) and phenanthroline (20 mol%) in DMSO and heating by microwave irradiation led to the formation N-phenyl-benzamide in an isolated yield of 89%. The yield decreased to 74% without the addition of phenanthroline, while replacing silver carbonate with sodium carbonate gave an isolated yield of 84%, suggesting that the ExIn reaction may not operate in solution. This was confirmed using benzoic acid with a 13C-isotopic-label at the carboxylate carbon as the starting material, which, under microwave heating in the presence of phenyl isocyanate, silver carbonate (5 mol%) and phenanthroline (20 mol%) gave N-phenyl-benzamide with retention of the 13C isotopic label based on GC-MS experiments under electron ionisation (EI) conditions. DFT calculations using a solvent continuum reveal that the barriers associated with the pathway involving direct attack by the non-coordinated benzoate are below the ExIn pathways for the coordinated silver benzoate.

Amides are important structural motifs in pharmaceutical and agrochemical chemistry because of the intriguing biological active properties. We report here the amidation of commercially available esters with anilines that was promoted by low-cost and air-stable chromium(III) pre-catalyst combined with magnesium, providing access to amides. This reaction occurs without the use of external ligands in a simple operation. Mechanistic studies indicate that a reactive aminated Cr species responsible for the amidation can be considered, which may be formed by reaction of low-valent Cr with aniline followed by reduction with hydrogen evolution.

The transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction of esters with amines has been developed as an advanced approach for overcoming the shortcomings of traditional methods. The broad scope of substrates in transition metal catalyzed amidations remains a challenge. Here, a manganese(I)-catalyzed method for the direct synthesis of amides from a various number of esters and amines is reported with unprecedented substrate scope using a low catalyst loading. A wide range of aromatic, aliphatic, and heterocyclic esters, even in fatty acid esters, reacted with a diverse range of primary aryl amines, primary alkyl amines, and secondary alkyl amines to form amides. It is noteworthy that this approach provides the first example of the transition metal catalyzed amide bond forming reaction from fatty acid esters and amines. The acid-base mechanism for the manganese(I)-catalyzed direct amidation of esters with amines was elucidated by DFT calculations.

In this paper, a NaOtBu-mediated synthesis approach was developed for direct amidation of unactivated esters with amines under transition-metal-free and solvent-free conditions, affording a series of amides in good to excellent yields at room temperature. In particular, an environmentally friendly and practical workup procedure, which circumvents the use of organic solvents and chromatography in most cases, was disclosed. Moreover, the gram-scale production of representative products3a,3wand3auwas efficiently realized by applying operationally simple, sustainable and practical procedures. Furthermore, this approach was also applicable to the synthesis of valuable molecules such as moclobemide (a powerful antidepressant), benodanil and fenfuram (two commercial agricultural fungicides). These results demonstrate that this protocol has the potential to streamline amide synthesis in industry. Meanwhile, quantitative green metrics of all the target products were evaluated, implying that the present protocol is advantageous over the reported ones in terms of environmental friendliness and sustainability. Finally, additional experiments and computational calculations were carried out to elucidate the mechanistic insight of this transformation, and one plausible mechanism was provided on the basis of these results and the related literature reports.

The direct mechanochemical amidation of esters by ball milling is described. The operationally simple procedure requires an ester, an amine, and substoichiometric KOtBu and was used to prepare a large and diverse library of 78 amide structures with modest to excellent efficiency. Heteroaromatic and heterocyclic components are specifically shown to be amenable to this mechanochemical protocol. This direct synthesis platform has been applied to the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals as well as the gram-scale synthesis of an active pharmaceutical, all in the absence of a reaction solvent.
